Hi all,

I've been using my Astro A50's for about a year now and absolutely love them.
However I've been looking into getting a soundcard for them as I've been using unlocked Realtek drivers in order to have DDL support.
I was wondering if getting a soundcard with DDL support for my Astro's would make any difference in terms of sound quality, and if so what soundcard would be a good option?
I would be willing to spend up to £100 for one if it will make a difference in sound quality, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

I doubt it would do much for A50's. They are battery powered so they have their own amp and you cant give them anymore juice, they probably have their own built in dac as well. And you would only be able to get sound cards that support DDL. Personally I would just leave it the way it is, I don't think a a sound card would be worth it for A50's as I don't think it would do much if anything, if you had some high impedance wired studio headphones or something maybe.
